The deceased was an honest and an industrious man, and in his death the community has lost one of its best citizens. He was born at Elsée?, near Strauseburg?, Germany, in 1835, and when two and a half years old came to this country with his parents, who located in Cincinnati. In 1864 he came to this city where he married his second and surviving wife. He then returned to Cincinnati where he remained until 1872, when he came to Cumberland and engaged in the beer business with Mr. W. A. Buckholtz[sic] until 1882, when he embarked in the mineral water business. He was a member of the Third Independent Ohio Cavalry and remained with this company three years. A wife and two daughters, Mrs. Wm. Buckholtz[sic, Buchholtz] and Mrs. Harry Radigan, all of this city, survive him.

Burial Set Monday For Road Victim ~ Franklin L. May, Baltimore Pike, Hit By Car, Truck
Services will be conducted Monday at 10 a.m. at the George Funeral Home for Franklin L. May, 49-year-old Baltimore Pike resident, who was fatally injured yesterday when he was struck by a pickup truck and automobile while walking across U.S. Route 40 near Rocky Gap Road, about six miles east of Cumberland. Rev. Allen J. Beck, pastor of Bedford Road Baptist Church, will officiate at the services and interment will be in Glendale Cemetery, Flintstone. Tfc. John W. McFarland, one of the investigating officers for the Maryland State Police, gave this account of the fatal accident that occurred shortly after 6 p.m. The victim was walking north across Route 40 toward his home which is localed near Habeeb's greenhouse. When he was about mid-way on the westbound lane he apparently walked into the left front side of a pickup truck being operated westbound by Glenden L. Shriver, of Fort Ashby. Mr. Shriver told Trooper McFarland he did not see the man until his truck hit Mr. May. The victim was thrown about 50 feet into the passing lane and about 30 seconds after being hit by the truck was apparently struck by an auto being driven west by John P. Sinko, 51, of RD 1, Flintstone. Trooper McFarland said Mr. Sinko, in the process of passing a truck loaded with pulpwood, noticed the victim, lying in the road, applied his brakes and swerved to the right to avoid hitting the man. All indications show the Sinko car hit the victim. Cpl. Robert Cave, who was driving behind the pulpwood truck, rendered first aid to the victim. Also investigating the accident are Trooper Richard Brown and Cpl. Glen Folk. Mr. May, employed as an auto mechanic, was a member of the Brethren Church. A native of Flintstone, Mr. May was born April 2, 1917, and was a son of the late Edward and Nina (Teeter) May. Besides his wife, Mrs. Catherine (Delawder) May, he is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Hazel Williams, Christie Road, and Eleanor Jean May, at home, and a son, Ronald May, also at home. Five brothers, Harvey W. May, Cumberland; Oscar 0. May and Dayton V. May, both of Flintstone; Benjamin May and Bernard May, both of Cumberland; two sisters, Mrs. Wade Turbin, Kalamazoo, Mich., Mrs. Richard Day, Cumberland, and two grandchildren survive.
